“Hanno tolto la luce a Casablanca”. Poche righe, giunte agli amici alcune ore fa. Al di là del linguaggio colloquiale e diretto significa che la redazione del mensile Casablanca non è più rifornita di energia elettrica.

Negli ultimi mesi vari sono stati gli atti di solidarietà alla redazione, soprattutto dopo il furto del computer principale. Una solidarietà che cerca di coinvolgere quanti più attori possibili e propone di sottoscrivere abbonamenti alla rivista, così da sostenerla finanziariamente e diffonderne le inchieste antimafia. di Alessio Di Florio
